Feature: file pseudo protocol #22

Open mynery opened 7 months ago

mynery commented 7 months ago

I am managing a markdown project and want to just preview the generated html and tinker around a bit with inspections and the whole stuff the extension actually provides. However, since this site will be static, I don't use a local webserver but rather checking it in my browser via file:// urls. Sadly, this just doesn't seem to work at all in thie extension. Any chance to get that feature? I wouldn't even need a file listing, I would be perfectly happy with just watching files I can specify the path for (and therefore have working links between the pages).

Besides the obvious optional feature of directory listings, another really good quality of live feature would the option to just open any htm(l) file in the project that way.

At the current time, I think you can use the Live Server extension before this feature is available. https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ritwickdey.LiveServer I will try my best to make that work with the proxy when the proxy is stable. Thank you for using my extension!
